Considering that there are about 45 to 55,000,000 households in the US that have firearms.....the number of crazies shooting up places isn't that bad.....
Averaging about 300 crazies that commit mass shootings per year.....but we must find a rational way to control those crazies....
55 million is a hell of a lot of homeowners.....
Put blame where it belongs
ATF decided it could not regulate bump stocks during the Obama administration.
It that time," the NRA wrote in a statement. "The NRA believes that devices designed to allow semiautomatic rifles to function like fully-automatic rifles should be subject to additional regulations."
The ATF and Obama admin. ignored the NRA recommendations.

Then why not hand guns which are responsible for the vast majority gun homicides?
If they committed and were convicted of a felony then I agree, you don't just get expelled for assault they arrest you unless it's a mutual fight, you never got in a fight at school?I want people kicked out of school for violence to be prohibited from owning them,
So the American Psychological and American Psychiatric Association should be in control of who is and is not allowed to own a firearm? Do you think that is due process? Do we need a new bureacracy to run this screening program? Should these unelected persons be able to regulate any other constitutional rights?
I want mentally ill people to be prevented from having them.

Why just the AR15?
What type of school violence?
Should any violence prohibit someone from owning a gun?
Define what mental illnesses disqualify owning a gun? Should those same mental illnesses disqualify someone from voting? One could argue they can’t make a rational decision.
Manipulated statistics, mass shootings have stayed at the exact same levels, everytown is debunked propaganda:
According to a careful analysis of data on mass shootings (using the widely accepted definition of at least four killed), the Congressional Research Service found that there are, on average, just over 20 incidents annually. More important, the increase in cases, if there was one at all, is negligible. Indeed, the only genuine increase is in hype and hysteria.

After this week's shooting at a high school in Oregon, a misleading statistic from gun-control group Everytown for Gun Safety was widely circulated. The group noted that 74 school shootings have occurred since the Sandy Hook Elementary School massacre in 2012.
The statistic includes isolated arguments between students, accidents, suicides, and gang activity. Every known incident in which a gun was discharged on school property — even if no one was hit — was included in that number.
CNN points out that only 15 of the incidents included in the Everytown statistic involved a minor or adult actively shooting inside or near a school.
